I know he broke his hand on Beltran's head, but has anyone heard any updates on how long he's going to be out?

His website is no help at all.

Sorry, I'm old and senile. I forgot about the thrashing he gave the thrashing machine.

But still, I can't find any info on his recovery and return.

I think he's just waiting for a fight:

UFC doesn't have much card space with all the WEC guys coming over. They've been moving to 12 fights per event instead of 11... but it still must be tough to slot everyone in.

He broke it on Tim, I just got the opponents mixed up. Second metacarpal was injured, but I haven't heard a peep about him since that night.

I don't think Mitrione hurt himself in the Tim Hague fight.

I think Matt Mitrione vs Brendan Schaub makes a lot of sense right now and I think it would be a hell of a fight.  Big fan of Mitrione it's been fun to watch him evolve in the UFC.  He's turning into a legit heavyweight.

I agree, Lynx. I drafted him for my fantasy league last month, but may have to trade him if he isn't going to get a fight anytime soon.

Mitrione makes some sense I don't know if they would set up 2 prospects like that. Mitrione hasn't faced close to the competition Schaub has yet. With the way Schaub is going clearing out the old guard I wouldn't mind seeing him in with Rothwell who has been on ice since his win over Yvel.

I would like to see the fight, but not right now...Schaub needs to get a fight to see if he can get into the top-5 and Meathead is still trying to climb up into the top-10...maybe in a year Schaub/Meathead will make more sense to me
